Cabucgayan Boardwalk

The town of Cabucgayan in the island province of Biliran boasts of a new tourist spot which is a boardwalk through its mangrove forests. Picnics can be made on the boardwalk. Crabs which are raised in its mudflats can be ordered in advance. (When we visited the place, though, they were not able to catch crabs so we had to look somewhere for our lunch).
The government of Biliran is actually developing its many natural sites like waterfalls, hotsprings and beaches for ecotourism. Access roads to these sites are being built and billboards are prominently displayed announcing to everyone the sites to be visited.
